Greetings to all,

      I'm recently purchased a Alphaserver DS10. I'm a big FreeBSD fan from
Brazil and I finally got access to an Alpha machine.  I have downloaded the
FreeBSD stable version 6.2 and tried to install it on the machine.
Everything was fine during the installation, however, when the system boot
(bringing up the FreeBSD) the kernel stops at the following lines:

  As I wrote, the machine is an Alphaserver DS10 with 512MB RAM, 40GB SATA
HD and IDE CDROM. The partitions were configured as default by
FreeBSD (1024MB SWAP, 512MB /, everything else default tmp, usr, var). I
really don't want to install any Linux distribution on machine, since i
think that FreeBSD is the best. As I told you, I'm completelly unfamiliar
with alpha systems and any help will be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Rafael Krug
